“Mr. Blackwood, the Mrs. is gone! There’s a…
file on the bed, You should take a look at it
yourself.”
Chapter 2
The hands of Ethan stroking Ashley’s hair
paused.
く
“The Mrs. is gone? What file?”
“Yes, sir. The nurse said the Mrs. left late at
night. The file is… a divorce agreement.”
The hand of Ethan gripping the phone.
suddenly tightened, and he stood up and
walked down the mountain.
His face was dark and forbidding.
He even wondered if he had misheard. Either
way, I had gone too far this time.
Even if I was unwilling to apologize, I
shouldn’t joke about divorce.
Ashley’s eyes flashed with resentment. She
pulled the sleeve of the man and asked
gently.
<
“Did something happen to Chloe? I’ll go with
you, maybe I can help.”
Ethan nodded and the two got in the car and
headed for the hospital.
In the small space, Ashley stroked the man’s
chest gently and comforted him.
“Don’t worry, Chloe will be fine.”
Ethan was extremely irritable. Now, the
woman’s touch made him even more angry.
He frowned and put down Ashley’s hand,
giving a muffled hum, rejecting Ashley’s
approach.
Ashley sheepishly withdrew her hand and dug
her fingernails into her flesh with resentment.
This was the first time Ethan had treated her

This was the first time Ethan had treated her
like this.
Looking at the man with dark eyes, she felt
inexplicably flustered and sent a message,
which was replied to in seconds: “Don’t worry,
it’s all been taken care of.”
In the high–class VIP ward, the director was
restless. A living, breathing pregnant woman
had been lost in his hospital. He really didn’t
know how to explain this.
“What happened?” Ethan pushed the door
open and the pressure in the room suddenly
dropped.
The director tremblingly handed over a thin.
piece of paper, hardly daring to imagine the
man’s reaction.
<
The words “Divorce Agreement” came into
Ethan’s view. When he saw the neat signature
in the lower right corner, Ethan’s face
completely darkened.
“Where is she? Didn’t I tell you to guard the
Mrs.? How did you lose her like this?”
The little nurse in the corner, who usually
liked me the most, wiped her tears and cried.
“Mr. Blackwood, it’s all my fault. I didn’t take
good care of the Mrs. The Mrs. just had a
miscarriage and her body is still so weak.
Where could she have gone?”
“What did you say? A miscarriage?”
Ethan interrupted her, his eyes full of
darkness as if he wanted to swallow her.
L
The little nurse was choked with fright. “Mr.
Blackwood, don’t you know? The Mrs. was
already six weeks pregnant. I don’t know how
she suddenly fell down the stairs… and had a
miscarriage.”
Ethan’s pupils shook violently, and after a
long time, he opened his mouth in a hoarse
voice.
“Chloe was pregnant with our child? Our child
is gone?”
His voice trembled imperceptibly, and his
eyes were red. Looking at the divorce
agreement in his hand again, he felt an
unprecedented panic in his heart.
Ethan’s brow kept twitching, and he felt as if
he was about to lose me.
く
He couldn’t help but think about how much
pain I was in when I had a miscarriage, and
how sad I must have been. I wanted to have a
child with him so much.
And the reason why they hadn’t had children
for so many years was something only he
knew.
Overwhelming guilt almost buried him.
He didn’t dare to imagine what would happen
if I knew the truth.
Ethan’s eyes were red, and his heart was
convulsing so violently that he could hardly
breathe. He suddenly remembered my words
when I questioned him that day.
く
“Ethan, don’t you have anything to apologize
for regarding my father’s death?”
A terrible thought arose in his mind, and he
spoke again in a hoarse, low voice.
“Check all of the Mrs.’s movements during
this time.”
“Also, how did she fall down the stairs?”
Soon, the assistant sorted out my
whereabouts.
“Mr. Blackwood, the surveillance footage in
the corridor of the hospital has been
tampered with.”
“But we have already asked all the patients in
the corridor at that time, and we will have
く
results in less than a day.”
Ethan’s eyes fell on the surveillance footage
of the karaoke bar.
Seeing my hand shaking violently as I held the
door of the room, and the collapsed look in
my eyes when I turned around, he understood
almost instantly that I had heard the
conversation in the room.
I knew everything he had done to my father
back then.
Ethan suddenly felt that his ugliest side was
exposed to me naked.
But he still didn’t believe that I would divorce
him and leave him voluntarily.
<
After all, for the past five years, I had loved
him as if I wanted to carve him into my
bones.
“Haven’t you found out where the Mrs. went?”
“The Mrs. has cancelled all her identity
